Javascript Online Rich Text Editors

15

This comparison list the JavaScript libraries that help developers to integrate an online rich text editor in their website.

Online rich text editors allow users to easily format text the way they want directly in a browser. Formatting is usually done in a very similar way as Word processors, using buttons or drop down menus to select the font style, sizes....

Features

WYSIWYG: These editors usually show directly the result while editing "what-you-see-is-what-you-get". MarkitUp is the exception here; this library helps to format HTML or other markup languages but do not show directly the result.

Integration mode:

  • iframe This technique use an iframe tag to integrate the content area. This allow to separate the content inside the editor from the rest of the page. This way the content styles can still match event if the edition page and target page is not the same.
  • in-place This technique allows to keep the overall layout.
  • textarea This technique use a textarea tag and result in raw text formatted as markup language (but not directly showing the result).

    I prefer TinyMCE because of its extensive features available and easy operation. Its Rich text paste plugin support is a really helpful feature which enables users to copy/paste data from any source and to ensure clean, compliant content that matches the look and feel of the site. If you are looking for an cost effective alternative to Powerpaste plugin in TinyMCE then PasteitCleaned is the best option. Very easy to use and available at an affordable price.

    I use shieldui editor - it used for rich text editing via a powerful WYSIWYG component shieldui.com/...

  • dandv on 2015-05-29 13:04:26
    suggested on WYSIHTML5 to set Nombre to WYSIHTML

    xing/wysihtml5 was no longer developed and was taken over in a fork by Voog now.

    Aloha Editor is GPLv2 by the way

    Thanks for the correction. I've checked yesterday and rechecked today; I don't know how I missed it.
